Rotameters are not easily adapted for reading by machine; although magnetic floats that drive a follower outside the tube are available. [1] Rotameters are not generally manufactured in sizes greater than 6 inches/150 mm, but bypass designs are sometimes used on very large pipes. [2]
A Thorpe tube flowmeter, a type of variable-area flowmeter, or a rotameter, is an instrument used to directly measure the flow rate of a gas in medical instruments. It consists of a connection to a gas source, a needle valve opened and closed by turning an attached dial for control of flow rate, a float resting in a clear tapered tube, and an ...
A rotameter is an example of a variable area meter, where a weighted "float" rises in a tapered tube as the flow rate increases; the float stops rising when area between float and tube is large enough that the weight of the float is balanced by the drag of fluid flow. A kind of rotameter used for medical gases is the Thorpe tube flowmeter ...
An LVDT (Linear Variable Differential Transformer) Variable Area Rotameter, is a meter designed to measure the flow rate of a fluid or gas. [citation needed]

The flowrate of purge gas is set by rotameter (FIC) or fixed orifice plate (FO). A low flow alarm (FAL) warns operating personnel that the purge flow has reduced significantly. [8] Pipelines are monitored by measuring the flowrate of fluid at each end, a discrepancy (FDA) may indicate a leak in the pipeline.
